All,
Long time watcher, first time poster.
I’ve read many posts about skiers trying to fit their skiing style to a particular ski.
What do you folks think about a ski fitting process that could determine the ski that fits your skiing style, ability, physique and skiing technique?

Spatulas really improve your "skiing style".
Laying them over on edge and having them turn away from you is super sweet.

What is the difference between a light beer and an ICE beer? I have seen bud ice before but have never had it. Curiousity has frequently ensued...
(Is this a tech talk question too?

If a person isn't good enough to know what custom ski they want, they probably don't need a custom ski.

Buy a pair of these.

Or try monoskiing.
They'll only run you two thousand euros per pair but they are "custom"www.chronicski.biz

Hmm... Don't think so. Why would they sell Bud Ice and Bud light (and natty light and natty ice) in the same store if that were the case? Originally Posted by Skip Dooley

Ironically, Ice beer should be the opposite of light beer.
For ice beer, you partially freeze the beer and remove some ice (water) thus making it stronger (more drunkifying). Whereas light beer has less calories cuz they remove some of the alcohol calories.
